  2. Boundary value problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boundary_value_problem

    A boundary condition which specifies the value of the function itself is a Dirichlet boundary condition, or first-type boundary condition. For example, if one end of an iron rod is held at absolute zero, then the value of the problem would be known at that point in space. A boundary condition which specifies the value of the normal derivative ...

  3. Boundary conditions in fluid dynamics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boundary_conditions_in...

    Showing wall boundary condition. The most common boundary that comes upon in confined fluid flow problems is the wall of the conduit. The appropriate requirement is called the no-slip boundary condition, wherein the normal component of velocity is fixed at zero, and the tangential component is set equal to the velocity of the wall. [1]

  4. Neumann boundary condition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neumann_boundary_condition

    In mathematics, the Neumann (or second-type) boundary condition is a type of boundary condition, named after Carl Neumann. [1] When imposed on an ordinary or a partial differential equation, the condition specifies the values of the derivative applied at the boundary of the domain. It is possible to describe the problem using other boundary ...

  5. Dirichlet boundary condition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dirichlet_boundary_condition

    t. e. In mathematics, the Dirichlet boundary condition is imposed on an ordinary or partial differential equation, such that the values that the solution takes along the boundary of the domain are fixed. The question of finding solutions to such equations is known as the Dirichlet problem. In the sciences and engineering, a Dirichlet boundary ...

  6. Robin boundary condition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robin_boundary_condition

    e. In mathematics, the Robin boundary condition (/ ˈrɒbɪn /; properly French: [ʁɔbɛ̃]), or third type boundary condition, is a type of boundary condition, named after Victor Gustave Robin (1855–1897). [1] When imposed on an ordinary or a partial differential equation, it is a specification of a linear combination of the values of a ...

  7. Stefan problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stefan_problem

    The classical Stefan problem aims to describe the evolution of the boundary between two phases of a material undergoing a phase change, for example the melting of a solid, such as ice to water. This is accomplished by solving heat equations in both regions, subject to given boundary and initial conditions. At the interface between the phases ...

  8. Cauchy boundary condition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cauchy_boundary_condition

    e. In mathematics, a Cauchy (French: [koʃi]) boundary condition augments an ordinary differential equation or a partial differential equation with conditions that the solution must satisfy on the boundary; ideally so as to ensure that a unique solution exists. A Cauchy boundary condition specifies both the function value and normal derivative ...

  9. Boundary conditions in computational fluid dynamics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boundary_conditions_in...

    Boundary conditions in computational fluid dynamics. Almost every computational fluid dynamics problem is defined under the limits of initial and boundary conditions. When constructing a staggered grid, it is common to implement boundary conditions by adding an extra node across the physical boundary. The nodes just outside the inlet of the ...
